Try making these healthy, vegan, gluten-free cookies on a rainy afternoon with your children. They will surely brighten your day! Recipes made with freshly ground buckwheat flour (from raw groats) do not require the addition of xanthan gum in order to hold together without crumbling.

Okay, this smoothie doesn't look too green now does it? Berries and greens blended up equal brown. Although the color may not look too appetizing, the flavor is amazing! My 4-year old twin boys drink it with a straw. They now race to see who is done first.

We like to roast a whole, organic chicken on occasion for family meals.

You’ll love this simple, gluten-free flatbread recipe so much it will likely become a staple in your home! It is made entirely from soaked gluten-free whole grains....no flours! The grains are soaked overnight, which increases their digestibility and nutritional profile, blended, and then POURED onto hot baking stones or cast iron skillets. No more wrestling with sticky dough or batter! This recipe makes two flatbreads.

Using mashed, ripe bananas in recipes is a simple and nourishing way to replace sugar. I've used it before in my sugar-free, grain-free Carob Banana Bars and in these lovely Teff Pancakes. My four-year-old twins have been eager to cook lately—and if I don’t jump in quickly, they take over and start cooking on their own. Hmm… I have no idea where they get that from! Most recently, cookies have been on their minds.

I don't think I've shared a beef recipe yet on this blog. Beef is a concentrated source of protein, minerals, fats, and vitamins. For the deficient person, beef can be extremely beneficial.
